ments he may require in the execution of his
contract Assistant Secretary Maynard

intends to bring in the articles temporarily.
and then return them to Canada, and as they
are to be used by persons other than himself
they are not entitled to free entry as tools of
trade, occupation or employment of persons
arriving in the United States, and that there
is no provision in the statute which would
authorize the granting Of his request. He
also informed the Collector that if the con-
tractor imports any animals into the United
States for work on the railroads, he must
make entry and pay duty thereon, provided
the Collector finds that such animals could
have been obtained in the United States.

The CONGREGATIONAL cluh.

The final meeting of the Congregational
Club for the season, was held last evening at
the Preble House. 1t was ladies' night and
tie attendance of both members and ladies
was very large
The parlors were crowded during the So
cial hour and at the supper in the grand din
ing hall, all the tables were filed, not less
than one hundred ana fifty sitting down.
The supper did credit to the hotel, whose
reputation is among the very first in this
respect.
All the interests of the Club have been
considerably and handsomely cared Tor by
the management of the Preble House since
that hotel become its headquarters.
The entire time allotted to literary exer-
cises, the committee wisely decided to give
to DR.. Strong of New York, the guest of the
Club. The high position of DIR. Strong, secre-
tary OF the EyangelicalAlliance of the United
States, as well as the interest awakened
through the land by his remarkable book,
Our Country" had caused lively desire
to hear his utterances upon the theme an
nounced for the evening, Cooperation in
Christian Work" The closest attention
was given to his clear, solid and powerful
address.
By terse and impressive array of facts
Il
Oh our population in cities and country are
not reached by religious influences and as
things are, so many denominations sharply
competing for the best part of the popula-
ton and neglecting the less desirable but
more ready classes, this state of things can
not be rectified. There is now great waste
OF men and money in UNCONVENTIONAL strug-
giles for ascendancy.
Ihere must be more Christian coopera-
ton OF all the denominations if the nom
church going are to be reached
Hand and hand work of all Christians to
bring those who are outside all churches into
some church, this work not to be for any
particular church-this is the great demand
of our time.
The Evangelical Alliance aims to promote
this union in UNCONVENTIONAL work Co-op-
Grafton, not competition, should be the
Christian watchword of our day. The de-
| nominations should truly bury all differences
and each practically admit fully the LOYALTY
to Christ of their brethren of other denomi-
nations, and strike hands in earnest for this
work OF giving gospel to the poor. The or
| ganlzed perils of the day call for a close or
| ganlzation of all Christians against these
| perlls. The Evangelical Alliance presents a
practicable means of effecting such organiza-
| tions.
AT the close of the address upon motion of
Rev. Mr.. Hallock, seconded by Mayor Chap
man, the Club expressed heartily its CRATE
full appreciation of the weighty and persua-
sive address of the evening, and the hope was
expressed that it might lead to some practi.
cal efforts in our city-to kcarry the recon.
mendations made into effect
The club adjourned to meet in November

second lecture in the series last Friday eve

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
THE MINsTRELs

The Wheel Club Minstrels had dress re-
hearsal at the theatre last evening, of the
performance which they will give tonight.
The various features of the programme were
given in spirited manner. and showed care
full training as well as great aptitude on the
part of the performers for their especial
parts. The ladder exhibition was as good as
when it so greatly pleased large number in
City Hall last winter. The farce by Mr..
Fred b. Smith is original and witty, and the
afterpiece bids flair to bring out shrieks of
laughter. The singing is good, and the
whole entertainment will be creditable to
the club and the performers. The seats
nave sold rapidly, but there are some good
ones left.
The Wheel Club is raising funds with
which to fit up new club house. The or
ganlzatlon is composed OF young men who
are deserving of the encouragement of the

THE LIGHTS o'LoNDoN.
The Lights O'London, which will be al
Portland Theatre next Monday and Tuesday
evenings. is one of the strongest and most
popular of the dramas which have pleased
American audiences for the past few years
1t is said of the play: zone of the prime
factors in its success may be attributed ts
the fact of its containing so many character
| parts, all of which are clearly outlined per-
| sonations Then, again, its situations are
| not strained or affected. Each climax Is
| succeeded by another infinitely superior tc
| its predecessor. Additionally the dialogue
is clean and pure, the action brisk and thor.
oughly dramatic, while the moral of its sim.
pie yet wildly interesting story appeals tc
